An excellent Christmas addition to my Christmas collection. It is the perfect background music for my holiday family gatherings. It was played repeatedly. This is a wise choice for anyone who enjoys piano music played with style and a holiday flair.Report Abuse

This album was as promised: a soft and mellow &quot;piano bar&quot; offering of Christmas music, perfect for those cocktail hour gatherings during the holidays. I had been looking for something like this for years.Report Abuse

I love this CD and have given it as a gift as well. The arrangements of carols and other holiday tunes are special and beautiful. This is a nice change from the typical commercial Christmas CD. I kept this and the Rutter Cambridge Singers CD in rotation in my BOSE.Report Abuse

This is a wonderful disk. Very bright and appealing arrangements - particularly of "Sleigh Ride." We own and enjoy it and bought it as a gift for a client that enjoys piano music and is looking at pianos to buy. They loved it too.Report Abuse

My introduction to "A Steinway Christmas Album" was hearing the first track played on the ArkivMusic channela bright, sparkling rendition of "Sleigh Ride." Can yet another version of this venerable tune sound fresh and new? Well, yes, it turned out. Pianist Jeffrey Biegel has a crisp, light touch, the high, staccato chords are like icicles shimmering in the sun, and the whole thing trots along delightfully. The rest of the album is just lovely, ranging from lush, contemplative pieces to sprightly, jazzy numbers, with a surprisingly successful mash-up of Bach's "Jesu, Joy of Man's Desiring" and "Ding Dong Merrily On High" thrown in for good measure. A perfect accompaniment to dinner or decompression time after a hectic day.Report Abuse

While not as original as the "Classical Carols" CD, Jeffey Biegel has another gfreat Christmas CD. If you are looking for excellent arrangements and solo piano Christmas music, put this at the top of the list.Report Abuse

Christmas is my most Favorite time of the year, I enjoy attending Concerts, but this year my time is very limited due to my Son having Cancer. Listening to Jeffrey Biegel performance in the Steinway Christmas Album, I felt as tho I was right in the concert hall, front row seat. it really brought joy to my fallen heart! plus when I went to pull out the program notes, much to my surprise their was a small Music Ornament!! Thank You to Jeffrey and Steinway and Sons!Report Abuse

If you can watch the online video first you will fill your check out basket with dozens of CD's. &quot;Sleigh Ride&quot; is impossible to play, but here it looks like magic, it's soo good. Besides the having the recording you also get tucked inside the folder an elegant, gold tree hanging of the Steinway logo. Fabulous in the Steinway series.Report Abuse
